Asked by Wiki User

No, and I'm not certain why any intelligent person would think they did.

Curtis has long expressed deep admiration for Grant as an artist, did a delightful parody of Grant in Some Like it Hot , and was thrilled that they worked together in Operation Petticoat . But there was never anything sexual.

Curtis has, over the years, spoke very openly about many of his sexual relations, but never mentioned this one. Neither Grant nor Curtis were gay.

your hands between the sheets

to lift him to the lavatory

slipped under a frame of bones like plywood.
